Two important reminders:
1. This is a Tolkien forum; discussion of other works such as the HP books are permitted only when they are compared to his.
2. No spoilers, please. Not everyone has read all of Rowling's books yet, and it would be unfair to give away plot developments.

On rereading the first six books, did you find anything about Rowlings' races that pertains here,
Esty? I can't recall that the theme of the treatment of other races and their interrelationships was brought out as much in the first three as in this last one.
And, when will the injunction about posting spoilers be ended?
There's a wealth of ways the two authors can be compared, but I think this is a good place to start.
